The Rainbow Faces

Almaron · **Reply #20 on:** September 09, 2009, 05:21:47 AM

I always thought that they weren't Aliens, that they were humans from the future using machines to change their appearance. They came back to study Dinosaurs.

In fact, when I first found this forum (Quite a while ago, but I didn't join), I read the unfinished story about some kids wishing upon a star, and ending up in the GV. I actually (at the time) planned to get an account and offer to finish the story. I was going to have the characters run into the Rainbowfaces, then at the end, do something with them (Like go into a strange cave or something) to get back to the present. Then they would all wake up where they were, with one character having something that would prove they were really there. Then, a park ranger would arrive, and tell the kids to leave, saying that this was trespassing. After they left, the ranger would get out a walkie-talkie, tell a "Mr Grosvenor" that the research was proceeding well, and he and a female ranger would head off into a strange cave...

(So yeah. Maybe the Rainbowfaces were spies for Universal. After all, they do have Doc Emmit L Brown on their side...)

do you remember what the title of the story was? After reading your discription I want to read it.

Found it!

A Wish Upon A Star

It was written quite a while ago by the user Threehorn, but it got abandoned. Shame it didn't get too far, it was interesting.

Maybe you can pick up where that person left off, or start your own based on that one.

Oh, knowing me, I'd probably never finish it. I always start writing notes, and plan the story, but when it comes to writing it, I get writers block and give up.

If I can find my notes and ideas I had about this, I might post them. I know I had a vague idea of how to continue the story, and a few ideas for chapters...

I wonder if I should post a similar idea I had regarding dinotopia? It was a story about how I would get there. I've got a chapter list, and a planned out story, but I haven't actually written it.
EDIT: It's in the written word section.

I've gotten writer's block many times when working on my stories and that never stopped me,getting it once is nothing compared to what could happen.

On the contrary Belmont, writer's block can derail
stories forever, if the problem is large enough (i.e. Time constraints, life, huge plot problem).

I wouldn't have minded these characters if they didn't leave the way they did in the final scene. I like to pretend it didn't happen, and they just walked off with the leaving herd, while a spectacular beam struck the land in front of littlefoot. But that's uh, retarded.

Aliens do not belong in the lbt series, as cool as they can be.

I personally liked the Rainbowfaces, I don't see why aliens don't belong in the Land Before Time world, who is to say that aliens didn’t visit our world long ago, I'm not sure what there mission really was, but I'm curios about all that stuff about things not being aloud.

Even though I think they are aliens, there are other possibilities that have been pointed out, spirits, humans, they could really be anything.

I didn't mind them. I thought their voices were a bit annoying, but as characters, they were definitely interesting.

They're awesome. I like to think they're brother and sister, the way they argue.

It was...interesting to see aliens in the LBT world, to put it mildly. If they make another LBT film I hope they bring them back!

It’s certainly weird to have sudden aliens out of nowhere, but I don’t personally mind it, it’s unique and memorable which is all I can really ask for. It wasn’t egregiously overplayed, really just one scene at the very end, and considering how repetitive some of the movies are, it’s a refreshing change of pace.

Probably for the best these guys didn’t reappear in a TV episode though

They are one of the reasons the seventh movie is my favorite of the sequels.

I remember thinking that the 7th movie wasn't the best one, but the Rainbow faces were highlights for me. Not even sure why I liked them.

I'll have to rewatch
